So Long Vikings…

Yesterday I had some friends over to watch the Viking’s last game of the season. We had some time to kill before the game started, so I turned on the Xbox and fired up Madden 09. We selected the Vikings at home against the Eagles and let it play in spectator mode (the computer plays, no humans needed) and proceeded to watch the game.

In the Xbox game, the Vikings kicked off to the Eagles just like in the real game. At the end of the Xbox game, the Eagles had won 20 to 17, which while not exactly the same, was close enough.

I am curious now how well Madden 09 will predict the winner. I am half interested to “spectate” the other games through and see… If I do, I will make a post about it.
